Chapter 258 Female Teacher
"Female teacher?"
The villagers looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.
"Where in the world is there such a thing as a female teacher?"
"Throughout history, there has never been a woman who served as a teacher."
Luo Qiuyue said, "Rules are dead, but people are alive. You are looking for someone who can teach. Why bother about whether she is a man or a woman? The person I'm talking about is knowledgeable and patient. The children all like her, and she is very suitable to be a teacher."
The villagers asked curiously, "Who is she?"
"Master Zhao's daughter," Luo Qiuyue said. "You should have heard that Master Zhao was the runner-up in the imperial examination. Rong'er has been with Master Zhao since she was little, and has learned a lot."
Rong'er is low-key and introverted, and never shows off her knowledge. When Luo Qiuyue saw her room piled high with books and she read every night before going to bed, she knew that this girl was actually knowledgeable.
The villagers of Heihe Village immediately echoed, "Come to think of it, Miss Rong'er has actually been helping Master Zhao teach the children to read and write."
"Miss Rong'er sometimes checks the children's homework."
The villagers in the surrounding area hesitated.
As Master Zhao’s daughter, she must be well-educated.
But what they wanted to find was a scholar. This girl Rong'er had no academic achievements and was still a girl. If they asked a girl to be their teacher, it would probably make people laugh.
"Anyway, I've given you some advice, but the final decision is up to you," Luo Qiuyue said nonchalantly. "I just think we should be more active. If we can't find a teacher, the child will be delayed."
The villagers laughed and said, "We have to go back and discuss this as well!"
Luo Qiuyue laughed and said, "Come to think of it, I was just too eager to do it and pushed Rong'er out. Maybe she doesn't want to be a teacher at all!"
After saying that, he invited Zhou Huaining and the headmaster into the village, and the villagers of Heihe Village also followed him into the village.
As a result, after walking a few steps, he saw the children who had just finished school running towards him, followed by Zhao Xingjian.
Xiao Wen and Xiao Wu were running in the front. When they saw Ye Yanshun wearing a big red flower, they jumped up excitedly and said, "Did Third Uncle win the top spot in the imperial examination?"
Everyone laughed.
"You have to keep working hard if you want to become the top scorer." Zhao Xingjian said with a smile, "It looks like your uncle has taken first place!"
"Master, what is the first place in the case?" the children asked in unison.
Zhao Xingjian: "The first place in the Tongshi exam is the top scorer."
"Wow! That's amazing!"
"I want to be the first in the case too!"
"If I become the first in the case, can I become an official?"
"Not yet!" The headmaster smiled and said, seeing the children were so cute, "You have to wait until you pass the imperial examination before you have the chance to become an official."
The dolls said happily:
"I want to be a juren when I grow up! Because I like being an official!"
"Me too!"
Everyone couldn't help laughing when they saw the children chirping like little sparrows.
At this time, the children discovered Zhou Huaining wearing official uniform.
"Uncle Ning, why are you dressed like this today?"
Zhou Huaining coughed twice and said, "You have the wrong person. I am not your Uncle Ning."
"It's obviously him!" The dolls laughed. "Uncle Ning, don't think we won't recognize you just because you changed your clothes!"
The village head scolded with a smile: "Stop it, little brats! This is the county magistrate, your Uncle Ning's twin brother. Come meet the county magistrate!"
"Greetings, His Excellency the County Magistrate!" the children said, staring at Zhou Huaining without blinking.
This county magistrate really looks like Uncle Ning!
"Are you an official, sir?"
Zhou Huaining nodded.
"Then you must be a juren?"
Zhou Huaining nodded and shook his head, saying no.
He was too embarrassed to say it out loud, but some people in this world rely on their fathers for survival.
"The county magistrate must have worked harder than Uncle Ning, that's why he became an official!"
"It looks like his hair is thinner than Uncle Ning's. It seems he studied too hard and has gone bald!"
Zhou Huaining: Thank you...
…
The Ye family’s kitchen was filled with fragrance.
After breakfast today, Yunniang and Ronger began to prepare for lunch because they knew there would be a happy event.
The Ye family had great confidence in Yanshun, knowing that no matter how unsuccessful he was, he would be able to pass the imperial examination and become a scholar.
Little Tuanzi sat on the kitchen threshold, holding a small bowl in his left hand and a big chicken leg in his right hand, eating with relish.
There were footsteps and laughter outside the door. Little Dumpling's eyes lit up and he ran over.
"Susu, you're getting fatter!"
"Xiao Jiuer!"
Ye Yan'an, Ye Yanshun and Zhou Huaining shouted at the same time.
"It's my turn to hold her. I haven't held Xiao Jiuer in a long time!"
Zhou Huaining quickened his pace and rushed to the front, snatching up the little girl and hugging her. "Xiaobao, do you miss your uncle?"
"Yes!" The little dumpling nodded obediently.
"So good!" Zhou Huaining's mouth opened instantly.
"Susu is wearing flowers?" Little Dumpling looked at Ye Yanshun.
"Yeah!" Ye Yanshun nodded, "Uncle got first place in the exam!"
"Susu is awesome!" Little Dumpling blinked his big eyes. "First, is there any prize money?"
"Hahahaha", everyone laughed.
"You little money-grubber, you're obsessed with money!" Luo Qiuyue smiled and tapped her forehead.
Ye Yan'an continued, "That's right. Now that we have a money-grubber like Xiao Jiuer, even mother has to admit defeat!"
"Ye Yan'an, you're making up stories about your mother again." Luo Qiuyue rolled her eyes at him.
"I'm awarded fifty taels of silver. I can buy a lot of snacks for Xiao Jiuer." Ye Yanshun took out the silver.
The little girl clapped her hands and said, "Anai, save it!"
"Xiaobao, now that the money is in your grandma's hands, it will be difficult for her to take it out." Ye Yan'an shook his head.
Luo Qiuyue slapped him on the head, "Nonsense, that's for you!"
"It's time to eat, everyone come in and sit down!" Rong'er greeted everyone.
The mouth-watering meal was served and everyone sat down to eat.
Luo Qiuyue said: "I almost got Rong'er a job today."
Then I told everyone about the female teacher.
Rong'er was extremely surprised. Although she was well-read, she never dared to show it.
A woman's virtue lies in her lack of talent. It is difficult for a girl who has read too many books to find a husband.
"Aunt, so you know everything." Rong'er felt a little embarrassed, but at the same time she was deeply moved.
She didn't expect that Luo Qiuyue would actually come up with the idea of a female teacher for her.
"The idea of female teachers is novel, but difficult!" The headmaster put down his chopsticks. "Throughout history, women have been barred from attending schools. I'm afraid the world would find it difficult to accept women teaching students."
"Just the first one!" The little dumpling who had been eating silently suddenly blurted out a few words.
Everyone looked at Xiaotuanzi, "Xiaobao, what's first?"
"Heihe Village, the first one with a daughter and a husband!" said the little dumpling in a baby voice.
Everyone looked at each other.
I didn't understand.
Xiao Wen said: "My sister's idea is that since there is no female teacher, let Heihe Village be the first village to have a female teacher."
Xiao Wu nodded, "Sister, what I mean is that Sister Rong'er should be the first female teacher of Dayu Dynasty!"
Rong'er was a little uneasy. "But, Heihe Village now has my father as a teacher. Even if I am willing to be the first female teacher, I need students willing to come and teach me."
